Ghost,
Did you know sometimes it frightens me
when you say my name and I can't see you

will you ever learn to materialize before you speak
impetuous boy, if that's what you really are
how many centuries since you've climbed a balcony

or do you do this every night with someone else
you tell me that you never leave
and I am almost afraid to believe it

why is it me you've chosen to follow
did you like the way I look when I am sleeping
was my hair more fun to tangle

are my dreams more entertaining
do you laugh when I'm complaining that I'm all alone
where were you when I searched the sea

for a friend to talk to me
in a year where will you be
is it enough for you to steal into my mind

filling up my page with music written in my hand
you know I'll take the credit for I must have made you come to me somehow
but please try to close the curtains when you leave at night

or I'll have to find someone to stay and warm me
will you always attend my midnight tea parties
as long as I set your place

if one day your sugar sits untouched
will you have gone forever
would you miss me in a thousand years

when you will dry another's tears
but you say you'll never leave me
and I wonder if you'll have the decency

to pass through my wall to the next room
while I dress for dinner
but when I'm stuck in conversation

with stuffed shirts whose adoration
hurts my ears, where are you then
can't you cut in when I dance with other men

it's too late not to interfere with my life
you've already made me a most unsuitable wife
for any man who wants to be the first his bride has slept with

and you can't just fly into people's bedrooms
then expect them to calmly wave goodbye
you've changed the course of history

and didn't even try
where are you now
standing behind me

taking my hand
come and remind me
who you are

have you traveled far
are you made of stardust too
are the angels after you

tell me what I am to do
but until then I'll save your side of the bed
just come and sing me to sleep
